Movieline spoke to Chris Hemsworth about Josh / Liam:

“I worked with Josh Hutcherson on Red Dawn and had such a great time with him,” said Hemsworth. “I still keep in contact with the guy. And Liam, obviously we run our stuff together and go over auditions and work together. Having worked with both of them, they’re both incredibly dedicated actors. And it’s the best combination. They know each other outside of this as well, and I couldn’t be happier that they’re working together, especially on a film like this which has such a fan base,” Hemsworth added. “People are very dedicated and passionate about it, and I think they can feel safe that [the filmmakers] have made the right choice.”

    Perhaps Chris can play Haymitch. Just a thought.

    if you haven’t watched this, DO IT!! Josh is THE PERFECT PEETA. He, on this interview, is so cute and charismatic…he can definitely hold the Capitol audience captive. SO PERFECT! and Liam–well, I can see it!! AWESOME!!!

    Chris as Haymatich? hahaha no way. He doesn’t look old enough for Haymitch. This is definitely a long shot, but I still think Hugh Jackman should play the part…again, it’s a long shot. Probably not even a possibility.

    But anyways, I think everyone just needs to calm down about this new casting decision. The directors know what they’re doing, and it seems like everyone but the few whiny complaining fans are satisfied. my advice? JUST. BREATHE. and calm down. =)

    i am getting more and more excited, i dont think i am completely condfident in jennifer or liam yet tho….. and chris as haymitch?? definately NOT

    Everytime they say this kind of stuff, it makes me more happy these people were casted, so :) I hope the movie is going to be great… We can at least give them a chance, we warmed up to Jennifer, did we not… So we will deff. warm up to them, they weren’t in my list when the news came out, but The Hunger Games is always making the right choices for some reason. I don’t know why though. May the odds be ever in your favor

    Him as Haymitch??? NO!




  9.  

    Ha, he’s beautiful. So excited for Thor.

    But he’s no Haymitch. I think Robert Downey Jr. should play Haymitch. he can pull off an easy to hate drunk.
    Although, Hugh Jackman would be nicer to look at.

    ;)

    Ya he would make such a good Finnick :D

    HUNGER

    i think that robery downy JR. should play haymitch, and alex pettyfer should be finnick




  15.  
    Rina

    I thought of Finnick immediately :D

    Phillip Seymour Hoffman for Haymitch!!! RDJ would be too distracting I think, just because he is such a huge star.

    MAXIMUM RIDE

    @ Hunger
    I completely agree!!!!! They would both be really good!!!!

    The better looking Hemsworth brother.

    I think they can feel safe that [the filmmakers] have made the right choice

    yeah, i dont feel “safe” and i dont really think they made the “right” choice

    lol, as far as him as Finnick goes, that would NEVER happen! He just happens to be an older clone of his brother. :) And since their characters from different districts it just wouldn’t work.

    Yeah I don’t like the idea of him being Finnick he seems too old. And as for Haymitch, NO! I’m not sure who I want as Haymitch everybody keeps saying RDJ but just like MissApae said, he’d be to distracting and there’d be to much of a big hype about him because he’s such a big star! I don’t mind him, but I’d rather have someone like Woody Harelson? Idk how to spell his last name but I gives off this Haymitch-y vibe to me, plus he has a similar since of humor like Haymitch. Sorry for the rant :D

    Rina

    I hope we hear who is Haymitch next…I like Jeffrey Dean Morgan.

    Emily

    NO FOR HAYMITCH! YES FOR Finnick totally!

    Peeta Power (Nat)

    they might consider alex pettyfer for finnick, i think he would of been a better peeta though. this guy for finnick? no. hes a bit too fat no offense

    Arisu

    @Peeta Power (Nat)

    Holy effing hell. He’s not fat at all. Please go watch clips of thor. I’m shocked that you would say he’s fat xDDDD hahahahaha

    It kind of makes me laugh how misinformed some fans are.

    Thats good,it will be better than if they were strangers.I think liam is cute but, his brother is gorgeous.Praying that the movie will be good.P.S. Vote for jennifer.

    Peeta Power (Nat)

    @Arisu no i dont mean fat, i mean like kinda chubby, a teensy bit old, looks too much like his brother.

    i would say that josh hutcherson is fat, and his face is square too

    Is it just me or is Chris being REALLY vocal about the Hunger games, its just a little sad that he is talking about it so freely and this much. xD

    @Peeta Power (Nat)
    I will admit, Josh Hutcherson was chubby as a little kid in Bridge To Terabithia and Firehouse Dog (but in a totally adorable little kid way ;D) but he is in no world fat. This is why so many stars end up with eating disorders. From fans saying they’re fat, when they’re perfectly healthy! Even people saying JLaw needs to be immaciated to play Katniss. It just totally pisses me off.

    definitely Finnick! He’d be perfect :)

    Waaaaaait… Isn’t Chris Hemsworth Liam’s older brother? Did he just hire his brother to role in the movie?




  33.  
    Elisabeth

    ouh, i missunderstood. Don’t mind what I wrote earlier about Chris giving Liam the role, lol.
